Unique in Europe, at an altitude of 2000m, an International Equestrian Training Center.
A river sand track on a ring 850m long and 4m wide with a maximum slope of 9%, four turns in a minimum radius of 40m. 3 weeks at altitude provide a horse with 1,5 million red blood cells. Result: physical capacities and better endurance. This is why Alpe d'Huez has designed this oxygenation center for horses, unique in Europe.

The mountain landscapes of Oisans offer you a change of scenery and a great breath of freedom!
